November 5 – St. Dionysius the Areopagite from the Liturgy of St. Dionysius, Bishop of the Athenians

Priest: (The Priest bending, says the prayer of the invocation of the Holy Spirit.) “I invoke Thee, O God the Father, have mercy upon us, and wash away, through Thy grace, the uncleanness of my evil deeds; destroy, through Thy mercy, what I have done, worthy of wrath; for I do not extend my hands to Thee with presumption, for I am not able even to look to heaven on account of the multitude of my iniquities and the filth of my wickedness. But, strengthening my mind, in Thy loving-kindness, grace and long-suffering, I crave Thy holy Spirit, that Thou wouldst send Him upon me, and upon these oblations, here set forth, and upon Thy faithful people.”

Priest: “Hear me, O Lord.”
People: “Lord have mercy. Lord have mercy. Lord have mercy”

Priest: “Through His alighting upon them, and His overshadowing, may He make this bread indeed, living body, and procuring life to our souls; body salutary — body celestial — body saving our souls and bodies — body of our Lord God and Savior, Jesus Christ — for remission of sins, and eternal life, for those receiving it.”
People: “Amen.”

Priest: “And the commixture, which is in this cup, may He make living blood, and procuring life to all our souls; blood salutary — blood celestial — blood saving our souls and bodies — blood of our Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ, for remission of sins to those receiving them.”
People: “Amen.” — Anaphora (Epiklesis).
